How big is the groove on a Hitachi CV carb?
groove diameter on the Carb itself is actually 73mm, but the dish and slide groove measurements are the same. Also, the key is slightly smaller on the hitachis than it is on the Keihin. With a little trimming of the key, I was able to install them with little issue, and they work Great.
How to tell if carb slides need to be replaced?
One simple test to see if the slides are contributing to the rough running is to hold the throttle at idle and then take up the slack on the cable by slowly turning the throttle – if the idle speed drops, it indicates that the slides are a loose fit in the carb body and should be replaced.

Why does the needle jet rub the throttle slide?
The needle jet is the last jet after the main jet for the gas to enter the engine. Every time you open the throttle, the needle which is attached to the throttle slide goes up and down and due to the air velocity of the air passing into the engine, there is slight pressure on one side of the needle which causes it to rub the needle jet.
